One day when it's my turn...

Being the youngest of 6 brothers and sisters I have had the opportunity to see a variety of parenting methods. It is amazing how out of the four families who have kids they all have different styles and yet they (collectively) have 7 amazing well behaved and lovable kids.

I've learned things from every set of parents. From one set I've learned that a little organization goes a long way. From another I've learned that sometimes the best way to love is to rough house and act goofy. From yet another set of parents I've learned that if all your kids wants to eat is fruit snacks then well, at least he's eating something. One set has taught me to read, read, read, to kids, talk to them and tell them things. I've even learned from a non-parent that a little hip-hop is not going to hurt anyone, who knows they might even like it!

So one day (VERY far down the road) when it's my turn to be a parent, be prepared because I might be calling you for help. If I can get all the best parts from these wonderful people I just might end up with a perfect kid!
